1 SECTION 1 ACMV
1.1 GENERAL
The purpose of air-conditioning and mechanical ventilation systems is to create a comfortable and safe
environment for the occupant as well as providing effective heat removal from M&E equipment.
Maintaining good indoor air quality in terms of temperature, humidity, air movement, air filtration and
contaminant controls will be a prime concern. The ACMV installation should not create undue noise
and vibration to the premises. Generally, centralized air-conditioning will be provided for podium
floors while the offices tower and residential tower will be fitted out with DX split units by the
occupants.
Mechanical ventilation will be provided for carparks, toilets, staircases, service lobby and M&E
plantroom.
A central chiller plant located at Level 12 will provide chilled water to air conditioned level 1 to Level
5 and common areas at L13 will be served by VRV units located at the level 13.
Automatic control and monitoring of all the ACMV equipment serving the podium and common areas
will generally be carried out via Direct Digital Control (DDC) system which will be fully integrated
with BMS.
The scope of the air-conditioning and mechanical ventilation (ACMV) systems proposed for the
Gilarmi development covers mainly the following :
• Air-conditioning of Level 1 to Level 5 comprising of a central chilled water plant (chilled water
distribution system, centralized air distribution system via air handling units) located at L12 and
open circuit induced draft cooling towers at Level 14.
• The lift lobbies from L1 to L12 will be air conditioned with DX/VRV refrigerant based air cooled
condensing unit and accompanying indoor fan coil units.

relevant standards, codes and guides issued by the local authorities and internationally recognised
institutions including the followings :
With reference to the Project Brief, the following criteria are proposed for the design of the ACMV
Services. These design conditions are used as input to the E20 Carrier Software to determine the

MECHANICAL AND ELECTRICAL DESIGN BRIEF
In general the common exhaust and supply air shafts will be used for exhausting air and
outdoor air make-up for the air-conditioning system.
i. Variable Air Volume System (VAV) – AHU to serve the Podium Level 1 to Level 5
Level 1 and Level 2 shall be served by 2 AHU for each floor, 1 AHU for phase 1 and

The VAV system is selected to serve the podium as the podium is segregated to many
small tenancy units where occupancy rates can vary significantly. With a VAV system,
the energy consumption can be optimized with the varying occupancy rates.
Each AHU will take in directly outdoor air from the external perimeter louvers via a
manual volume control damper.
AHU shall be interfaced with the BMS to allow monitoring of the AHU status (on, off,
trip, VSD frequency, off coil temperature, on coil temperature and differential pressure
across the filters). BMS shall also allow control of on-off of the AHU.
Each AHU shall be fitted with a smoke detector at the return air duct that when activated
shall stop the AHU.
ii. Smoke Control Fans Interface with the AHU supply air ducting.
The podium on each level is divided into 3 smoke zones where smoke control fans are
connected to the AHU supply air ducting (SAD). Motorized smoke dampers will be
provided to allow the SAD to be converted into to smoke extract ducting.

The podium is protected by engineered smoke control system. The design basis is to ensure the
following tenability criteria are met at a height of 2.5m above each of the podium levels.:-
a. visibility of at least 10m
b. smoke temperature less than 200degC at a height of 2.5m above each of the podium levels.
We will be adopting the Fire Dynamic Simulator Version 5 (FDS) to model the geometrical dimension
of the podium to determine the tenability criteria are satisfied within the time required to allow
occupants to safely evacuate the premise.
The sprinkler system is used to activate the smoke control system instead of the smoke detectors, fast
response sprinklers shall be used for the podium areas. This will reduce the cost of the smoke control
system and eliminate the nuisance activation which is inherent of smoke control systems activated by
smoke detectors.
The podium for each level is divided into the following smoke zones:-
1. Level 1 - 2 smoke zones; GL A to L and GL L to X
2. Level 2 - 2 smoke zones; GL A to L and GL L to X
3. Level 3 – 4 smoke zones; GL A-L/1-3, GLA-L/4-6, GL L-X/1-3 and GL L-X/4-6.
4. Level 4 – 4 smoke zones; GL A-L/1-3, GLA-L/4-6, GL L-X/1-3 and GL L-X/4-6.
5. Level 5 – 4 smoke zones; GL A-L/1-3, GLA-L/4-6, GL L-X/1-3 and GL L-X/4-6.
6. Level 6 – 4 smoke zones; GL A-L/1-3, GLA-L/4-6, GL L-X/1-3 and GL L-X/4-6.
The smoke exhaust fans are integrated with the AHU supply air ducting to allow sharing of the ducting
to reduce the cost of the engineered smoke control system.
